PDGA#: Not yet, next year for sure
Division: Rec/Intermediate Women
Began Playing Disc Golf: December 2008. My husband Dale (aKa "Godfather") became quickly addicted to disc golf and I had to see what all the hullabaloo was about. Now I am successfully addicted and have introduced 3 other women to the game
First Disc: Borrowed - 175 Yellow champion Beast, Owned - 175 Pink & Gray Star Destroyer
Favorite Hole at Morley: 11 - Fun hole, shooting down hill like 5 without the head wind. Short positions are Ace-able and long positions are SUPER challenging (especially through the double mandy)
Morley Field Aces: Not yet!
Favorite Disc : 175 Champion Road Runner - I'm on my second one (lost my first one in the Lake at the El Do Open). Just flies right for me almost everytime
Favorite Driver: 150 R-Pro Boss - This disc is awesome! Flies FOREVER. My husband showed me how to Haizer Flip and now I can drive past the pyramid on 5 :0)
Favorite Midrange: 175 DX Cro - Stable enough to always come back
Favorite Putter: 170 R-Pro Aviar - Soft enough to stick in the chains, sturdy enough to get it there
In My Bag: 175 Champion Roadrunner 174 Tsunami163 DX Destroyer 167 Champion Groove 170 ESP Surge 175 Star Destroyer 175 DGA Rogue 169 Champion Leopard 169 Star TL| 174 Stratus 175 Teebird 150 R-Pro Boss 172 DX Skeeter 167 Star Skeeter 175 DX Cro 175 Star Kite
Tourney wins and / or Top 5 finishes: 1st Place - January 2009 Monthly (Women's Division) 3rd Place - 2009 El Dorado Open (Intermediate Women's Division)
Favorite Disc Golf Website: DiscgolfersR.us - It's like social networking for the disc golf world, LOVE it
Favorite Pro Player: Just like good potato chips, I can't pick just 1 :0) Fave's include: Carlo Pelg, Kent La Gree, Daniel "Big D" Lichtman, Kevin "KG" Gomez - ALL of these guys have contributed to my quick success in disc golf and I admire them all
Tips for newer players and players looking to improve: Learn to throw flat first! I've taught/coached several people and that is the #1 thing I start them off with. Play with angles after you have more experience, start out flat!
